Well, yes -- I see a pattern. It could be called "widely dispersed." <g> I
think you might be in the Atlantic Modal Haplotype, the most common European
haplotype based on the six markers DYS19, 388, 390, 391, 392 and 393. The Y
STR database doesn't include DYS388, though.

The Y STR database wasn't working last night or this morning, but it might be
an interesting exercise to plug in just your DYS385 numbers and see their
distribution. You'll also get a table showing values of other markers which
have been found with DYS385 = 12,13.
